* AdultsAreUseless: In ''Marvelous Musical Mansion'', Auntie Annabella ends up locked outside when she's unable to come up with the answer to Doorknocker's riddle (though she does learn that no one entered or left the house through the front door, which proves that someone inside the mansion committed the crime), while Uncle Rubato solely investigates the dining room--which is the one place where nothing suspicious happened. It falls to the kids to find all of the clues and actually solve the crime.
* BeYourself: The overall Aesop of ''Marvelous Musical Mansion'', as demonstrated with [[spoiler: Andy Bandy Man--the human characters gently chide him for stealing objects from the rest of the household, saying that he is unique and special in his own way and doesn't need to take their items to be appreciated.]]

* FairPlayWhodunnit: The second part of ''Marvelous Musical Mansion'' becomes this type of mystery when various musical items go missing. [[spoiler: The fact that [[ChekhovsGunman Andy Bandy Man]] is accidentally left awake after he performs and is clearly shown envying the other [[LivingToys music boxes]] makes it easy for kid viewers to solve the mystery along with the characters.]]

There's also a liberal amount of clues sprinkled throughout the film, including Andy being the only person ''not'' missing something he needs for his performances, a sentient piano playing his theme when Alex asks if it knows anything, and the musical staircase playing the notes AB-DB, or ANDY BANDY, over and over.]]

* GreenEyedMonster: This turns out to be [[spoiler: Andy Bandy Man's]] motive in ''Marvelous Musical Mansion''--[[spoiler: Aunty Annabella forgot to magically freeze him after his performance, so he was awake to watch the kids heap praise on the other three music boxes and Meter Mouse, who lives in the grandfather clock. He comes to doubt his own talents and decides to steal items from the others to prove that he is just as special as they are.]]

** Profster of ''Big Rock Candy Mountains'' is also a mild version, but he's more stuffy and overly prim than grumpy.

** The cheerful rodent who chimes the hour in the grandfather clock is Meter Mouse. Meter is the tempo at which a piece is played--in other words, both musical meter and Meter Mouse ''mark the time.''

* OnlySmartPeopleMayPass: A very mild version occurs in ''Marvelous Musical Mansion''--Doorknocker [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin the sentient doorknocker]] insists that the only people who can enter the house are those who solve his riddles.

Added DiffLines:
* RhymesOnADime: As you might expect from a children's video series based on nursery rhymes, this is a ''very'' popular trope.
** The Spurdlegurgles of ''Sillyville'' speak exclusively in rhymes; it also doubles as [[FinishingEachOthersSentences]], as there are four of them, and they simply pass the rhyme from one to the next.
** The stuffed animals of ''Grandpa's Magical Toys'' largely speak in [[TotallyRadical rap.]]
** Doorknocker in ''Marvelous Musical Mansion'' both only talks in rhymes and gives rhyming riddles to anyone who tries to enter the house.

The only real exception is ''King Cole's Party'', where the whole story is set in a NurseryRhyme land and the AudienceSurrogate kids are NurseryRhyme characters themselves, though even that one has an AllJustADream framing device with a modern family.
